Much hubbub in New Orleans on Tuesday, the day an SI.com report painted Baltimore Ravens superstar linebacker Ray Lewis as a possible user of a banned performance-enhancing substance during his comeback from a triceps injury.

The report on Lewis, a seemingly shady company called S.W.A.T.S. and a spray containing a substance derived from deer antlers called IGF-1 was strikingly similar to an investigative story published two years earlier by Yahoo.

The SI.com report begins in stark detail with a recounting of a meeting at a New Orleans hotel between several Alabama players—including current linebacker Adrian Hubbard and former defensive standouts Quinton Dial and Alex Watkins—and Christopher Key, one of two men who founded and operate S.W.A.T.S.

The meeting took place prior to the national championship game vs. LSU in January of 2012—without the knowledge of Alabama’s coaches—and was recorded by Key with a pen camera, according to the report.

No. 2 Alabama beat top-ranked LSU 21-0 in New Orleans.

The recording reportedly shows Key presenting the players with several substances—in spray, powder and liquid form—as well as hologram “chips” intended to stimulate and preserve energy.

It’s unclear which of the substances contained banned substances, but IGF-1 is banned by the NCAA as well as the NFL and other pro leagues.
